From the start, the project was designed for speed and reliability. Prefabricated modules allowed for efficient on‑site installation with minimal disruption, while intelligent remote control, monitoring, and diagnostic functions ensure consistently high availability throughout its lifecycle. The fully indoor design, complemented by photovoltaic support, underscores Amprion’s commitment to sustainability and future‑ready grid infrastructure.
The Rheinau STATCOM brings stability exactly where the energy transition puts pressure on the grid. With its extremely fast and fully automatic response to voltage fluctuations, even under low short‑circuit conditions, it acts as a reliable anchor in an increasingly dynamic system. Its grid‑forming control not only enhances overall system reliability but also creates the stable foundation needed to seamlessly integrate high shares of renewable energy.
For the Rhine‑Neckar region, this means a secure and dependable power supply, even as the grid becomes more decentralized and dependent on weather conditions. Advanced harmonic filtering ensures consistently high power quality, while the modular, efficient system design helps reduce operational and lifecycle costs. Ultimately, Rheinau does more than solving today’s challenges: it strengthens long‑term grid resilience and supports Germany’s sustainable energy growth for the decades ahead.
